Overview
Thought to be a synonym of S. pimpinellae. Female holotype seen by Droege. However it should be noted that this holotype clearly has no subapical tooth while the other synonym of S. pimpinellae - S. distolus - clearly does. The holotype of S. pimpinellae has not been seen but Mitchell mentions it having a subapical tooth.
